Color shift during printing

Hello,
I recently had a bug with my printer that no longer overlays colors correctly, so the red is misaligned with the black on the printout, etc.
I have an HP Color Laser printer and I'm running Vista.
Is there any software, or anything else, that can reposition the colors based on given measurements knowing that the colors are always offset by the same gap?
Thank you in advance!

    The color misalignment on a color laser is generally due to a problem with the transfer belt... If you do not have the technical manual to realign it, you will need to go through customer service...

    Hello,
    in the software provided with the printer, there must be something to solve the problem. It's been a while since I used an HP, but the procedure should be somewhat similar: in the printer properties, there is a maintenance tab. Select "print head alignment" and follow the instructions.
